Nissan 100 NX (EU)

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Nissan 100 NX (EU) manual transmission fluid capacity ranges from 2,9 to 3,5 liters. Service intervals require checks every 15000 km or 6 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

100 NX 2.0 GTi, B13 (1991-1995)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 3,5 liter
  • Check 15000 km/ 6 months

Additional Notes

  • The Nissan 100 NX (EU) 1.6, B13 carries a manual transaxle fluid capacity of 2.9 liters, while the 2.0 GTi, B13 requires a notably larger 3.5 liters, reflecting the greater fluid volume the larger-displacement variant's transmission demands.
  • Both the 1.6 and 2.0 GTi configurations share an identical service check interval of every 15,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first, under normal use conditions.
  • The 0.6-liter difference in transaxle capacity between the 1.6 and the 2.0 GTi is a meaningful distinction at the service bay, as underfilling a transaxle can lead to inadequate lubrication of gear sets and bearings.
  • Both specifications apply to the B13 platform across the full 1991-1995 model year span, meaning no capacity or interval changes are recorded within that production window for either variant.
  • The fluid system is classified as a transaxle rather than a standalone gearbox, indicating the transmission and front differential share a common fluid sump, which is typical of front-wheel-drive layouts like the B13.
  • The 15,000 km check interval is tied specifically to normal use conditions for both variants, meaning the interval governs routine inspection rather than a full fluid drain and refill cycle.
